Minde and Li Li both stayed in a luxurious hotel in the city. Although it was already good, Li Li
From a human perspective, there is still a big gap between everything here and that on earth. It cannot be said to be on the same level at all.
It's the second time, but it's good to have such enjoyment in such a place. Li Yi can't wait to go to the street right away
Go take a walk and see what is there in such a big city with a population of more than one billion. Look at the people below.
Knowing how dense the population is here, it’s unbelievable that such a city exists. Minde has no idea about these.
He is already used to it. On the contrary, he is not used to it when he is not in the capital these days. He first settled Li Li in
Here, what he has to do is to have a good talk with the escape routes he had arranged in the past.
After being the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for so many years, if I had no way out, then my job would have been in vain. Of course,
Some things are not that simple. In the past, I lived a life where a fox pretended to be a tiger, but now that tiger has become
Now that he has become a sick cat, he may become even more useless, but this time he has brought a lot of things.
Damn it, as long as you throw all these things away, you can still see the former emperor, or
Maybe he also hopes that he will appear, because according to the intelligence, they all know that the emperor has been relieved of his power. This pair
For an emperor, that is unimaginable. He will never be lonely like this. If so, for
For him, it was a kind of torture. He had what he needed and believed that this guy would cooperate with him.
If we can get his support, restoring the glory of the Cao family business in the Southern Empire will be a matter of time.
This kid Li Li doesn't need any news at all. He is here just to do things, and there is nothing wrong with him along the way.
He was so tired, and he didn’t use his own legs to walk anyway. Now that he heard that Minde was going to do something, he also hoped that he could follow him.
Went there together, Min De couldn't refuse this boy. In fact, he also knew that the boy in front of him was in the Cao family business.
He is very popular among them. I don’t know how many people want to serve this kid, but things are not that simple now.
Shan, the person in front of me wants to follow me. How can I not let him go? If he is in other places, I can still say
No, but where is this place? This is the capital of the Southern Empire. It used to be his base camp.
It would be very easy for this guy to do something to betray the Cao Family Trading Company, now in the entire Southern Empire.
The business of the Cao Family Trading Company is recovering. If he really has an idea, this matter can really be solved by the Cao Family Trading Company.
It brings a lot of losses to people, and we must not let such a thing happen, so we must control some things.
That's okay. Of course, Li Cong didn't arrange for Li Li to do that. Li Li didn't have that idea himself, but Min
That's De's own thoughts. Li Li is just curious about the people on this planet. Other than that, there is nothing else.
I have other ideas. As for surveillance, I have never thought about it. Of course, he is not a fool.
, as a member of the Li family, this brain can move much faster than others. Just like now, he understands a lot, this
These things were like this. He knew that Minde must have thought wrong. His grandfather told him that this guy was very
It's useful. I can't let him misunderstand me like that. I'm not here to delay things.
"Mr. Minde, things are not what you think. You have to understand that I am not here to monitor you. You also know that Cao
Basically, there will be no suspicions about the people employed in my business. I just have a disdain for most things on this planet.
It’s only out of curiosity that I feel like this. Of course, I also want to see what kind of forces you left behind. Grandfather took this
Some of the things in the matter were handed over to the two of us. Should I also have some rights to know? If Mr. Minde thinks that I don’t have
If you need to know those things, it doesn't matter, just tell me, I won't follow you." Li Li said with a smile.
Tao, he solved the misunderstanding in just a few words. His eyes looked very innocent. They all knew about this.
That's what he looked like in front of him. He really wasn't here to monitor him. You can tell when Li Li said these words and saw Min De's expression.
This guy didn't misunderstand, which is still very good. If he misunderstood, it wouldn't be so good. Minde heard his words
Although I am still thinking that it is impossible not to monitor myself, but no matter what, it is already a
That’s right, it’s not like he hasn’t seen those powerful people before. For him, those people won’t give you anything at all.
Any explanation is just to ask you to do something for them. If you are stupid and want to go over and ask for an explanation,
This matter is not that simple. It will definitely make your head move. Minde never wanted to hide anything from the beginning.
Love, it is like this now. For him, he will have to follow the Cao Family Trading Company all the way to the dark side in the future.
If you can't do this and act erratically, you will really be a villain. In this case, no matter what you do in the future,
No matter where I am, I estimate that I will have no future, and the Cao Family Trading Firm will not let me go.
"Haha, what are you saying, young master? I have that idea, but even if the trading company puts me under certain supervision,
It’s okay to be blind. Compared with Mr. Wu and others, I always have some less glorious past. What happened in the past
There is no point in coming out, the future is the most important thing. I will definitely let the people in the business see my use.
For them, I may not be able to convince them, but I believe that if this mission in the capital is completed,
, many people will believe in me in the future. If they still don’t believe in me, then I really have no choice.
That's how it was back then, forget it, it's okay if you want to follow me. But I can't tell you who you are.
Theirs, you can only feel aggrieved and become my follower?" Minde said self-deprecatingly, but it can make the young owner of the Cao Family Trading Company
Being a follower for him is already very good. Li Yi doesn't care much about this, even if he is a follower.
So what can he do, as long as he is not allowed to stay here. He doesn't want this rest at all.
, now that the two people have reached a consensus, they can leave directly. For them, now
Everything here is not very good. After all, this is the capital of the Southern Empire. You need to be careful about everything. The Southern Empire also
There are many radical people, and some of them may do something to the people of the Cao Family Trading Company. Some young people in the Southern Empire
The officials all advocated the good development of their own military and would launch another war against the people of the Cao Family Trading Company within a few years.
Get their territory back, get their money back. But now they can only shout slogans
, as for other things, they really don’t know anything, which is a bit chilling.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs is definitely a very large department for an empire. Their entire operation is even better than that of the Sixth Ministry.
The operations are all large. It can be said that the Ministry of Accounts and the Ministry of Internal Affairs are the departments that deal with the most money, but the employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs are not.
There are more such things than those in the Ministry of Household Affairs, which also shows that managing the public purse is not the emperor's purse.
Sons are much more important. Besides, being an official in the Ministry of Internal Affairs is different from being an official in the Ministry of Revenue. What in the Ministry of Revenue?
There are rules to follow. If you have that ability, you will have to wait a few years until the big competition to get promoted, but
It's different in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. In the Ministry of Internal Affairs, there is no need to follow these similar things. The Ministry of Internal Affairs can say
As long as you have your own abilities, the people above will basically use you. Of course, your biggest reward is money.
, it is impossible to obtain any status unless you get to know the emperor from the beginning.
That is impossible for him. The place Min De is going to now is the home of an imperial merchant in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Now the new internal affairs office
The Director-General of the Ministry of Internal Affairs has been in office for several years, and some of his staff in the Ministry of Internal Affairs have been sent to the side.
After Xinjiang is gone, it will have no effect at all. This guy used to flatter himself a lot, and even if personal friends are included,
It's very good. I guess I can talk to him about going together. If we can't talk about going together, there's nothing we can do about it, no.
There is no need to worry that this guy will betray himself, because each of these businessmen are very treacherous.
There is no benefit to him from selling himself. If there is no benefit, they will not do it.
Keep everything on the line so that we can meet again in the future. This is something that everyone can be sure of.
What this businessman is mainly engaged in is the timber business. No matter how rare or precious the timber is on the entire continent, this guy
All of them can be obtained. Of course, this is considered one of his abilities. He is not the biggest timber wound in the Southern Empire.
Man, but this guy is definitely the most profitable timber merchant in the Southern Empire. According to the regulations of the Southern Empire court, merchants and so on,
Their home can only be in Nancheng, and all the northern city is where scholar-bureaucrats live. Even if you are a scholar, you
You can also settle down in Beicheng. No matter how much money you have, as long as you are a businessman, you can only live in Nancheng.
This is the rule of the Southern Empire. This rule is not so strict in other places, that is, it only exists in the capital area.
Such regulations are mainly because the royal family of the empire want to highlight their status. To be honest, they usually eat and drink
They are used to having fun, but they don’t have that much money. Each of them can be said to be a bit poor.
If you hang out with these wealthy businessmen, their life is not very good every day, so just separate.
Yes, if it is an open robbery, this is the capital of the Southern Empire, and not all the supervisory agencies here are free-spirited.
Many censors kept an eye on Huangshi disciples like them. Back then, this wood was used to hurt people.
There were many times when people were blackmailing people, but Minde settled the matter for him. Although Minde was not considered a noble, he
Minde is even more aristocratic than the nobles, not to mention some of the Huangshi disciples who have no foundation, even some of them are promising for reserve positions.
What can the princes do? Those people are not here to curry favor with him. If it were not for Min De, they would all
They don't know when they want to see the emperor, so naturally they won't offend Min De.
Soon the two of them arrived at this guy's door. Because this was a merchant's door, the government of the Southern Empire usually came
They say they won’t come to monitor this place. Each of these people meet many people every day. I’m sure this person is not from the Southern Empire.
It's from other places. It's very normal for businessmen to meet these people. If you don't even let them do this,
How can people make money? If they have no way to make money, how can they bring certain benefits to the court of the Southern Empire?
What about taxes? These things are all complementary to each other. You can’t just do whatever you want. Many times everyone
I know that. But sometimes it is unavoidable. If the people in the government happen to be short of money these two days, they will
I would come here for a stroll. Those businessmen from other places don’t often see people from these powerful departments of the empire.
In order for their business negotiations to go smoothly, they can only give money quickly so that these people can get out of here.
Don't delay your own business. The money you gave away is only a small amount. If it delays your serious business,
The loss would be huge. Naturally, they would not pay for the money themselves. This would all be counted on the emperor's head.
That's right, although you didn't charge us any money, none of your little brothers are worry-free goods.
That can only be to put this money on your heads. One of the important reasons why the imperial merchants can make money is
Their profits are not their own. It would be good if 10% of the 100 taels they earned goes into their own hands. The rest is
Everyone pays their dues here and pays filial piety there. Even so, their life is much better than that of ordinary people. Those businessmen
This is the reason why everyone wants to be an imperial merchant. Everyone is not a fool and they all want a good profit.
However, some royal merchants were also allowed to live in Beicheng. The servants they hired were even the same as those in the royal palace. There were restrictions imposed by the court.
They would never do anything forbidden by the imperial court, but it changed later. They would naturally do things that were not prohibited by the imperial court.
Well done, for example, their houses are not allowed by the court in Beicheng, but you can't allow them to live in Beicheng.
Relatives of scholars and so on should buy their own houses in Beicheng. If such things are prohibited, the court will be too
It's too much. I won't let anyone pass it. This imperial businessman's name is Lin Mu. One of his relatives is a scholar, so he just used it.
This guy's name has built a large house in Beicheng. As long as he is a scholar and a person with a good reputation, he can do it.
In Beicheng, there were many people to take care of these wealthy businessmen when they started doing this, but after their money attack
Under the current situation, not many people will talk about this issue. They all know clearly that even if you take care of this matter, they will not
If you can do other things, the rules are dead, you don't have to let him do it, but the money is alive, and sooner or later they will
Those who can accomplish this, and later His Majesty the Emperor will also reward some of the imperial merchants who do better, and will also let them
We have a house in Beicheng. Since His Majesty the Emperor is like this, the remaining people are not fools. Naturally
It was about starting drilling rigs everywhere, and in the end it became about whether I could live in Beicheng, and it became a matter of dazzling.
It was a place to show off one's strength, and in order to encourage normal competition among the royal merchants, the imperial court actually acquiesced to such behavior.
, each of them will be confident. This is how Lin Mu’s house came about. When the emperor built the palace, it was like this.
It can be said that the things he got from the Warcraft Mountains are very well made, otherwise there would be no such thing as this house.
Along the way, Min De was talking about Lin Mu to Li Li. Speaking of which, this guy was considered a figure among businessmen.
If precious wood is used in the palace, it is basically done by this guy. If nothing else, let’s talk about his money.
Offensive. Then no one can bear it. Others dare to give half of their profits to these officials, but Lin Mu
Even more bold, this guy can use 80% of the profits. Remember that the Ministry of Internal Affairs wanted to repair some palaces.
About 400 million silver worth of wood was used. These things are very precious things. It’s not like you want to get these things.
It can be obtained, but this guy got it. When others thought he wanted to make a lion open his mouth, but they
He quoted a price of 500 million silver. When Minde reported this matter to His Majesty the Emperor, Minde naturally did not
Talk about Lin Mu. He will definitely say that this is his own contribution. His Majesty the Emperor really believes this matter.
People have always said that this guy Minde can get things done. Minde was awarded at that time, and then this guy gave 8 million
Two taels of silver were sent to Minde's house. In the past, for such things, Minde could only have three to five million at most.
Not bad, but they directly obtained 8 million taels of silver. Such an amount even surprised Minde.
, later on, as long as there was business in this area, this guy basically got eaten by him. It can be said that this is how he does things.
If you are willing to throw away money, nothing will be impossible in the end. Relying on the connections built over the years, this
This guy has more than a dozen business outlets in the capital, and many throughout the empire. It can be said that he is not an empire.
The largest timber merchant, but he is definitely the most profitable timber merchant in the entire empire.
Lin Mu came back very early today. He is basically the same as some rich people, but what he likes most is beautiful women.
, this beauty has always been what he pursues. Didn't he just buy a stunning beauty from the south, his fifteenth
The concubine was about to rest with him, but the housekeeper knocked on the door. Lin Mu would probably have to go to bed if something like this happened.
Go out and ask someone to teach your butler a lesson with a board. The other butlers all know that this is definitely the time.
You can't talk about things with the master. Even if you do the right thing, there will be no good ending in the end, but
The housekeeper still kept knocking on the door. Lin Mu finally couldn't bear it anymore. The concubine on the bed breathed a sigh of relief.
, my family wouldn’t have sold me if it weren’t for money, but the person in front of me was obviously more valuable than me.
Being several decades older, it was my first time with such a person, and I felt a little uncomfortable. Now
Seeing this person leave like that, I feel relieved in my heart. I will have to deal with such things in the future.
It's enough to come a few more times, but just think about it. You are already the meat in other people's mouths, sooner or later.
He would eat himself up. Naturally, Lin Mu would not see what this woman was thinking, so he casually got some clothes and put them on.
Then he went out cursing, "I want to see what's going on. Don't you know my habits? Or you guys?"
Everyone's skin is itching. I'm not happy with myself at this time. Master, I don't have any other hobbies. I just have this little hobby.
I'm going to get nothing done by you idiots. If I don't teach you a lesson today, it's simply impossible.
There is no law." This guy said as he walked out, and the several stewards outside could run as far as they wanted.
The concubine also wanted to hear what was going on outside in the house. Although she was still a girl, she was still training in a place like that.
The one who has been abused is not the girl outside who doesn't know anything. I'm afraid it's the housekeeper outside who has suffered a lot, and he himself has suffered a lot.
It's the last time we have. Who knows, I've been waiting for five minutes, but I don't think of any sound outside.
Come. But she couldn't sit still anymore and asked her girl to go out and see what was going on. This was a bit inappropriate.
Reason, if this kind of thing didn't happen in the past, what's happening now? In a short time, this thing
The maid ran back, but the news the maid gave him was what surprised him. He knew it before he entered the house.
I wonder what kind of temper this master has. If a person like him enters his door, he will destroy himself.
It would be strange to let him go. That is absolutely impossible. But what happened today is really very strange. This
The person went out immediately. What kind of people were coming outside? It was not just this new woman who came in, but also the other servants.
I also felt a big difference. If nothing else, the servants in this courtyard were very nervous. It was as if they had encountered something fatal. Life in the capital was not easy. Everyone
They are all very clear about it, but they also all know that their master is not an ordinary person. Some time ago, there was a viscount who had some problems with his young master. Everyone in the family was very scared. In the end, it was still
The master went out and visited the Yamen of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. In the end, the Viscount left it alone. You must know that their master is a common man, not a nobleman. He can make a nobleman bow his head. That is something that a magician can do.
.
"Go ahead and tell me, everyone will stay with me tonight. Everyone will stay in their seats tonight. If anyone moves around, I will arrest them all. Everyone will be a cage tonight."
Blind man, no matter what you saw tonight, no one can tell me anything. If you let me know what you said, your good days will come to an end today, and you will all be dead.
, take the guests to the living room, you follow me personally, and send all the servants on both sides away, and then you personally guard the door, there can't be anyone within thirty meters, if anyone comes close, even if it's
You, too, have to be killed by me." Lin Mu said as if facing a formidable enemy. This master usually gave his servants the impression that he was very confident. What is going on today? How could he behave like that?
It's not normal. Look at the master's forehead. He is actually sweating now. I really don't know how such a thing could happen. Even when he encountered the same thing as that Viscount, it didn't happen.
I was really sweating this time. The butler nodded repeatedly. He knew that something should happen at this time. The last time something like this happened, the master’s family fortune expanded by one-third.
Yes, I know this very clearly. I don’t know what will happen this time. He must do these things well. Last time, he received a reward of fifty thousand silver and a steward.
There are so many exes who already disagree very much. It’s good that I can encounter such a thing once. As long as the master gives me so many rewards this time, I can go back to live as a teacher.
I won't continue to be worried about this place. Looking at the current situation, I guess it should be about the same.
Lin Mu hurriedly walked towards the living room. For him, the thing in his hand made him feel very troublesome. The thing in his hand was his own. In the past, he would give away such things by himself.
It would be good if this thing was given to ordinary officials, but this thing is given to Minde. Minde was a good target in the past, but people like me would often surround that guy.
He was wandering around, but it is different now. No one will mention that guy now, because that guy is an alternative in the official circles of the Southern Empire. Now many people want to know what he is doing. It is said that he has become
He is the first-level manager of the Cao Family Trading Company. In fact, if he had to choose, he would rather be the first-level manager of the Cao Family Trading Company. Although the director of the Southern Empire Internal Affairs Office is also good, that was in the past. Everyone knows
The backstage of Minde is the previous emperor, the current Supreme Emperor. It was okay in the past, but not so good now. The current emperor is the son of the previous emperor, but all the loyal ministers of the old emperor have retired.
There is no need for these people to continue to exert their so-called residual heat. In their view, the people of the old emperor are relatively rigid and cannot adapt. This is not what is needed now. What is needed now is change, what is needed
It is a change. There must be some new blood coming in. If there is no new blood, the entire empire will be finished. So Minde left at that time really timely, otherwise, even if
There will be nothing good to eat if he stays, and he will be kicked out by the new emperor of the empire at this time, and there will definitely be no good ending. But at this time, he is not a teacher in the south, so why did he ask people to come to him?
Min De did not reveal his identity. He just sent the thing over and asked someone to send a message saying that an old friend was coming to meet him. He imagined that he was Min De and it was his own business.
When Lin Mu walked into the living room, he saw two strangers. One was naturally Li Yi. The other was Min De after his disguise. This guy changed his appearance. After observing for a long time, Lin Mu couldn't remember the person in front of him.
Who is this person? Because there was no such person in the past, how could he know the person in front of him? He knew Min De. But Min De was disguised, so naturally he would not recognize him. "I don't know."
Who are you two from Master Minde? Although Master Minde is no longer in the Southern Empire, if you are an old friend of Master Minde and encounter any difficulties, you can still come to me. I can also help here.
Yes, if it had been a while ago, I might not have dared to take you in, but now there are not so many things to do, and so many loyal officials in the court are no longer here, let alone Mr. Minde, who plays a less important role.
Everything can be started again." This guy said straight to the point. In fact, he was also afraid that such a person would come to his home. If someone saw this and sued him casually, he would be in trouble.
Maybe there is really no other way. The whole family is trying to kill everyone. It is not easy for me to get to this level. So I hope these two guys can express their thoughts quickly and watch them.
The clothes on the two of them are very valuable. They probably didn't come here to ask for alms. Then there must be something new. This thing may be something that I am afraid of, but at the same time, there may be new opportunities.
Yes, Minde knows his own, and there will definitely be benefits.
"Haha, don't be afraid, Mr. Lin. We have no other intentions. Take it easy. Look at us. You must not know us. No one in the entire capital knows us. I'm here today.
You always want something, don’t get me wrong, Mr. Minde has now become the first-level manager of the Cao family business in the south, and the contract with the court has been agreed, so it is impossible to hold Mr. Minde accountable for his fault.
Like Prince Ren, we are all people who have seen the light of day. We are here to talk to you about some business matters." Minde said with a smile. He knew that if he wanted to open up a situation in the capital, he would need to
is a stepping stone. Anyway, the business of the Cao Family Trading Company has dropped a lot in the Southern Empire. At this time, it must start again. These people are the stepping stones to get up. You can't say that, I can only
It means that both sides communicate with each other. What we need to do now is to make the people in front of us unsuspecting. Lin Mu was a little suspicious after hearing what he said. After all, he is a businessman himself and knows the news from the south.
It's not very clear. Just like this matter, he just knew that Minde might have gotten involved with people from Cao's Trading Company, but he definitely didn't know to what extent he got involved, let alone that he actually became a member of Cao's Trading Company.
He is a first-level manager. Such a thing really surprised me. Since he is a first-level manager of Cao's Firm, then this business will definitely not be small. He is an ambitious person. If he didn't have ambition,
Now he might let the two people in front of him get out, because he definitely doesn't want to get burned. These two people can be killed so easily. If he is caught by the intelligence department of the Southern Empire, his life will be ruined.
It's really not an easy time.
"Oh, I really didn't expect Master Minde to be so powerful. Back then, he was a powerful figure in the capital, and now he is even more powerful. I definitely wouldn't have thought this way before, but today I am really
To say it sincerely, Mr. Minde is very capable. He is really king in the north, but he is just as good as in the south. But if Mr. Minde continues to stay as the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs
If so, life would not be so easy. Look at the current imperial court. It is really chaotic. Today the minister was dismissed for some unknown reason. Tomorrow the minister will retire and return to his hometown. Moreover, the imperial court
They often introduce some policies that are not conducive to us. The current imperial court seems to be helping those with weak legs at every turn. If they forget their roots, things will not be so good. The emperor was also born in a wealthy family.
But they attack us rich people first. Alas, I really don’t know what to say. Every day is not as good as one day. Now the taxes paid every month are more than twice as much as before, but there is not even one tael of silver for filial piety and other things.
Give me less, how can we live?" This guy is also an acting person. Seeing that the other party did not tell what the cooperation was about, he was not too anxious here. Like those people, he continued
Just keep silent. The rest is beyond your control. Whatever you want to say is your own business. If you want to cooperate, then you have to show some sincerity. If you don’t want to
If we cooperate, then I don’t know what to say. Is our conversation coming to an end today? It’s impossible to continue talking nonsense. The risk for me is too great. I’ll give you a little chat at most.
That’s enough time, it’s impossible to do it for a long time.
"Haha, let's not talk about Master Minde's affairs anymore. What we want to talk about now is about our cooperation. Now Master Minde is already responsible for most of the business of the Southern Empire. As you know, because of the war
, the business of the Cao family business here has basically stopped. I also know that the current court is different from the past, but Lord Minde also said, you businessmen will always be the same.
If you have your own way, you will never let your own people suffer. You will definitely have some methods of your own. If you want to continue to increase your family business, how about cooperating with Master Minde?
Master Minde knows that you are in the lumber business, so you have to get up in your old business first. The bow-necked wood in the Warcraft Mountains must be the thing you want most. This thing is in the capital of the Southern Empire.
There is price but no market here. It happens that Master Minde has a lot of it, but the consumption of the entire Southern Empire is also limited. In the past, you could still take action in Holy Light City, but now
There are no business opportunities over there. We can only find a way here in the capital. Do we need to cooperate now? As for the price, you can rest assured. 30% of the price here in the capital will be enough. If we let us
If you are responsible for transportation, it will be 50% of the price. I wonder what this one is like?" Minde said with a smile. If such things can't impress him anymore, he will really be rubbish. Just look at this guy's eyes.
I understand, this guy has really fallen into this trap. What he wants is to attract you first. When you taste the sweetness, you will definitely continue to do business with us. At that time, everything will be more complicated.
It's easy to handle, but actually their life is really not easy at this time.
After the new emperor of the Southern Empire came to the throne, basically all the big construction projects and other things have stopped. It is a bit impossible to continue to sell high-end wood. Although there is still a lot of income every year, but if you want to be as good as before
It's just as impossible as before. We can only look at it honestly. Then we have to open up some new ways. The royal family does not use precious wood, but they use some top-notch ones. Even their own
I don’t have much inventory on hand, just like this bow-necked wood. If I really have a large amount of it, I can really make a lot of money with this thing. (To be continued.)
